These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside The Oera Linda Book - From A Manuscript of the Thirteenth Century: Look inside the book: “If the book is a romance, then I must admit that it has been written with a good object, and by a clever man, because the sentiments expressed in it are of a highly moral tendency; and the facts related, so far as they can be controlled by regular history, are not untruthful; and where they deal with events of which we have no historical records, they do not offend our ideas of possibility or even probability.” ...The spelling is also simple and easy, so that the reading of it does not involve the least difficulty, and yet with all its regularity, so unrestricted, that each of the separate writers who have worked at the book has his own peculiarities, arising from the changes in pronunciation in a long course of years, which naturally must have happened, as the last part of the work is written five centuries after the first. ix

Excerpt from The Oera Linda Book: From a Manuscript of the Thirteenth Century, With the Permission of the Proprietor, C. Over De Linden, of the Helder; The Original Frisian Text, as Verified by Dr. J. O. Ottema, Accompanied by an English Version of Dr. Ot

The Oera Linda Book: From a Manuscript of the Thirteenth Century first came to the attention of scholars in the mid nineteenth century, and the controversy it caused is still sending out ripples today. Originally in an antiquated Old Frisian, a Germanic language in use for almost a millennium, the unusual manuscript was translated into English by William R. Sandbach and it contained what seemed to be stories of historical and religious import. They spanned a period that covered from around 2000 BC to 800 AD. After an initial honeymoon period of widespread acceptance the controversy surrounding the work began to increase and to this day a lively debate about the source of the text exists. The identity of the original author is shrouded in mystery along with the design and purpose of the work. Many believe that the work may even be the creation of Cornelis Over de Linden, a Dutch man, in collaboration with his associates. A crucial question for every reader will undoubtedly be whether this book was created by a writer seeking to record sense or court sensation. While that question is one that each reader must answer for themselves as they assess its merits there is no doubt that the alternative history of Europe as a matriarchy under an unfamiliar association of Gods is one which provokes thought, its use by the Nazi party as a prop for their occultism in particular leaves one driven to investigate.
